1. A method of unlocking an electronic device based on motion recognition, the method comprising:
- generating motion information by detecting user motion;
calculating optical flows based on the motion information;
converting the optical flows into a code by sorting and grouping the optical flows based on a set of reference directions;
generating a comparison result indicating whether the code is consistent with a predetermined password by comparing the code with the password; and
determining whether to unlock the electronic device based on the comparison result.

Abstract
A method of unlocking an electronic device based on motion recognitions generates motion information by detecting a user'"'"'s motion, calculates optical flows based on the motion information, converts the optical flows into a code by sorting and grouping the optical flows based on predetermined reference directions, generates a comparison result indicating whether the code is consistent with a predetermined password by comparing the code with the predetermined password, and determines whether to unlock the electronic device based on the comparison result.
